Kris Jenner has cut her tropical vacation short, for an unfortunate reason.
The reality star was off on trip to St. Bart’s with long-time boyfriend Corey Gamble over the weekend when son Rob Kardashian grew very sick.
He ended up going to the hospital and, following a battery of tests, was diagnosed as having Diabetes.
“Rob had stomach problems over the weekend and didn’t feel well,” an insider tells People Magazine.
“He has to take medicine now to control his blood sugar level. He was also told he needs to rethink his whole lifestyle. He needs to see a dietician and change the way he eats.
“If he doesn’t change his lifestyle, he was told that it could have serious consequences.”
As a result of this incident and this diagnosis, Jenner flew home on Wednesday to spend time with Rob.
Kardashian’s struggles have been well-documented.
He has remained almost entirely off social media and almost entirely out of the spotlight for a year-plus now, with sources saying he’s gained over 100 pounds in that time.
It got to the point where family members had to acknowledge his issues.
“He’s OK,” Kris recently told Maria Menounos of E! News.
“He’s just working on himself a little bit and trying to be a better Rob, so I just have to trust that he’s good…We’re all him to support him for whatever he needs.”
Let’s all hope this diagnosis is the wake-up call Rob Kardashian requires.
